Fordham bans Chic-fil-a for holding same position as church

In yet another case of a Catholic university tabling a plan for a new Chick-fil-A for holding the same position on gay marriage as the Catholic Church (as well as almost every mainstream Democrat before Obama "evolved"), Fordham University, "the oldest Catholic institution of higher learning in the northeast," has decided to trash a plan to install a Chick-Fil-A at a food court after LGBTQ group Rainbow Alliance unanimously rejected the popular fast food chain's proposal to work with them.

"Part of me is hopeful that they’ll start taking this attitude of listening to queer students and queer voices, because there are so many on this campus and just in life," said Francesco. "I really do hope this is a step, as opposed to just a final 'Oh we'll do this, we’ll give them that,' as a way to placate us. But we were very happy with the decision." Rainbow Alliance co-president Roberta Munoz echoed her colleagues' skepticism about Fordham fully embracing the "LGBTQIA+" agenda. "This is something that I don’t want to congratulate Fordham for, like 'Oh my god, I'm so glad that you can see this. You're such a good person,'" said Munoz. "I don’t want to pat them on the back. You can't say, 'Oh you're such a great ally,' when there’s still so many issues with our queer students. Like great, love it, but keep going."

Catholic school doesn't like the church? Hmm

If the controversy gets big enough, CFA is going to sell even more chicken.

As a lifelong Catholic, this disgusts me.

G. Gordon Liddy graduated from there. He probably won't be sending any more alum checks.

I guess the plus symbol is their lazy way of making sure everyone is included or did I miss the new update?

There is an all-out spiritual war on Christianity going on in public right now. Liberals don't want to acknowledge it because there are still so many professing Christians but you can not condemn anyone these days unless they are a Christian, in which case it is fair game because there won't be any fight against it.

So dumb...

Never has 3% of the population wielded so much (perceived) power. Maybe it's just me, but I've never been asked by sexual orientation before being allowed to place my order at Chic-fil-a.
These people are children. I think there sole identity in life is to be a perpetual "victim." There's 15k students at Fordham. I would imagine there are 10X as many students who like chicken sandwiches as LGB_____ students enrolled at the school. Yet, even if you just said "I have no issue with homosexual, but I really like chic-fil-a" you are automatically a bigot by default. No questions asked!

I have so many gay friends who love Chick Fil-A and eat there regularly.

Just waiting on them to start arresting pastors for preaching against homosexuality. (It is coming, believe me).

Message for these morons that ban Chick-fil-a from their campuses: You're cutting off your nose to spite your face.

More for me. Their chicken biscuits aren't just good. They're damn good.

I have no problem with people protesting with their checkbooks no matter how misguided they may be. Welcome to the free market and capitalism!

Pointing out hypocrisy doesn't mean anyone thinks they are beyond their rights. Protest all you want. If your protests get Chick-Fil-A banned, then more power to you. More chicken to me.

i wonder how many protesting CFA voted for Obama in 08

This has nothing to do with capitalism or protest. This has to do with a very small vocal minority strong arming a school and apparently spineless adminstrators caving in.
